The word dwells is important. The psalmist isn't describing someone who occasionally runs to God when life becomes difficult, but someone who makes his home in the presence of God.

And there, near to Him, we find shelter.

To abide in the “shadow of the Almighty” is a picture of nearness, refuge, and rest.

When life feels uncertain or circumstances are outside of our control, Psalm 91 reminds us where our security is ultimately found. Not in our ability to protect ourselves from everything that might happen, but in the God who is sovereign over all of it.
